Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire es una gran secuela que ofrece justo lo que se espera de ella: más y mejor, sin olvidarse de introducir interesantes novedades para no perder su frescura. Una aventura gigantesca, bien escrita, desafiante, profunda y repleta de posibilidades que os llevará más de 50 horas completar, mucho más si queréis explorarlo todo. Si te gustó su primera parte o simplemente disfrutas con la vertiente más clásica del rol occidental, aquí tenéis una compra enormemente recomendable y apetecible.

IGN España - Carlos G. Gurpegui - 9,2 / 10

Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire es la primera vez que Obsidian regresa a uno de sus universos y se nota. La compañía ha sabido mantener la esencia que tanto gustó de la primera entrega pero sin miedo a efectuar un buen número de cambios que dotan al conjunto de mayor solidez. Estamos ante un juego de rol que aunque mira intensamente al pasado del género se atreve a desligarse de muchas de sus normas y a trabajar en nuevos caminos para el estudio.

CGMagazine - Preston Dozsa - 9.5 / 10.0

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is a sequel that surpasses the original in nearly every way, and is an RPG that should not be missed.

Cubed3 - Ofisil - 9 / 10

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is a lesson in sequel creation. Instead of making some slight alterations, or simply changing the setting, this smooths all the rough edges of the first game, while keeping the plot, writing, and role-playing aspect in top form. While not without flaws, and although the seafaring business is not equally awesome as the rest of the experience, this is, without a single doubt one of the best Dungeons & Dragons-inspired RPGs of the year. Kudos in spades Obsidian Entertainment!

Game Informer - Matt Miller - 8.8 / 10.0

A richly imagined seafaring setting lends novelty to what is ultimately an evolved iteration of very traditional isometric RPG fun

Gamers Heroes - Blaine Smith - 8 / 10

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is not for everyone. The web of intertwining features and mechanics are as deep as they are complicated, but for those looking for more from their RPGs – more character, more wonder, more life – Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is a fantastic homage to the true roots of the RPG genre.

GamesBeat - Jason Wilson - 92 / 100

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire puts the gods, warts and all, at the forefront of the story, and at this point, it shines when it focuses on your interactions with these powerful-but-flawed beings.

GameSkinny - Ty Arthur - 10 / 10 stars

Clear your calendars, folks, because the RPG of the year has arrived.

GameSpace - Catherine Daro - 9.8 / 10.0

Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire has taken Obsidian's formula of success and brought it to the new heights.

GameSpot - Daniel Starkey - 8 / 10

Ship management and naval battles fit neatly into the dark fantasy setting of Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire.

GameWatcher - Aron Gerencser - 10 / 10.0

Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire is as close to the perfect RPG as one can get. The fantastic setting, grand story, exceptional writing and voice acting, engaging combat all coalesce into an exemplar of its kind. This is the game that sets the bar. This is the game that needs to be aspired to.

GamingBolt - Ravi Sinha - 9 / 10.0

Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire is a sequel that plays all of its cards right. It's an enthralling adventure, both for veterans and newcomers, bringing a fantastical world to life that you'll want to explore again and again.

Guardian - Jonathan Allford - 4 / 5 stars

The fights are less fearsome, but if you liked Baldur's Gate or Planescape: Torment you'll enjoy this retro role-playing game

Hardcore Gamer - Chris Shive - 4.5 / 5.0

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is a worthy successor to the original.

MMORPG.com - Suzie Ford - 10 / 10.0

If you’re looking for the next, and perhaps greatest, grand cRPG; if you’re aching for an epic single player adventure; if you’re seeking a setting outside the norm; if you’re hoping for a story that takes you in and hangs on, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire fills the bill. It is something special, something you’ll want to play again and again and is a game that will undoubtedly be remembered as one of the genre’s best.

PC Gamer - Andy Kelly - 88 / 100

A massive, bountiful RPG with richly descriptive writing, a well-realised setting, and deep tactical combat.

PCGamesN - Phil Iwaniuk - 9 / 10

It's an extraordinary game. One that you'll feel faintly lost in at first, while its many systems permeate your grey matter. But all the while its story unfolds and reveals new wrinkles, the sense of place growing deeper.

RPG Site - Bryan Vitale - 9 / 10

With clever gameplay refinements, strong mechanics, and a smartly integrated narrative, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is one of the genre's best.

Shacknews - Charles Singletary - 9 / 10

The original Pillars of Eternity is a tough act to follow, but Obsidian has knocked it out of the park once again.

TheSixthAxis - Jason Coles - 9 / 10

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is a game about choices and epic story lines, grounding itself with the unique characters you find and the fact that your ultimate aim is to get the rest of your soul back. Having such a personal quest at the centre of such a fantastical plot really keeps you invested in both the people and the world, whether you're carrying on your adventure from the first game or starting afresh. Either way there's a genuinely likeable cast, both personal and global stories and the pleasure of mastering all its systems. A genuine joy of a game and one which is simultaneously approachable and impossibly deep, Deadfire is a fantastic sequel and one which you will be thinking even when you are away from its world.

USgamer - Doc Burford - 4.5 / 5 stars

It's always refreshing to see an RPG try something new. Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire deftly blends classic RPG fundamentals with more intriguing pirate-themed gameplay. If you enjoy RPGs, you'll almost certainly want to give Deadfire a shot.

VGProfessional - Mazen Abdallah - 8.5 / 10.0

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire manages to tell an exciting tale in a totally new setting, and it takes some fun new chances with the fantasy genre. It learns many lessons from its predecessors, and it’s more accessible to casual fans, but this is still very much a cRPG, so expect to bust out your reading glasses.

Wccftech - Nathan Birch - 9 / 10.0

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is an exceptional roleplaying experience that truly lets you forge your own path in a rich, multilayered, grog-soaked world. Occasionally the game is just a touch too retro for its own good, but, for the most part, Pillars of Eternity II proves Obsidian has set the right course. It's clear sailing ahead for the classic computer RPG.

Windows Central - Rich Edmonds - 5 / 5 stars

Obsidian has gifted the already cluttered RPG genre with an excellent title that offers hundreds of hours worth of gameplay. Puzzles, ship combat, side quests, exploration, and other activities keep you occupied along the way.

Worth Playing - Rhi Mitera - 9.5 / 10.0

Overall, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire feels like the game of my dreams.
